Cambs without the "E"
I'm afraid I don't agree about the Cambridgeshire badge being faked, the ones that I have seen that I am not keen on have the "E" in the title, has this one without the "E" been faked to death?
The badge with the missing "E" first appeared in 1940 when the 1st Btn were stationed at Weeting Hall in Norfolk in 1940, a day or so after issue they were recalled and sent to the newly formed Home Guard and were also worn by the cadet force, they are quite plentiful around here which you would expect in Cambridgeshire, my Father-in-laws sits on a photo of him, one that never got re-issued and came home.
I agree that all badges put up for inspection should have a photo of the reverse before an exact verdict can be given.
